“Krishi Viman” a Revolutionary Drone Built for the Agricultural Sector
Krishi Viman is transforming India's agricultural sector and tripling farmers’ income by using drone agri- technology.
India's economy is mostly based on agriculture. For the vast majority of rural households, agriculture continues to be their main source of income. A significant amount of India's exports are agricultural products, which are another important component of its economy.
Despite the growing importance of agriculture, the industry is still lagging in terms of technical development. The main causes of this situation have been crop loss owing to unfavorable weather and unmanaged insect problems. However, Indian farmers still rely on the monsoon rains for irrigation and employ traditional techniques for other aspects of farming. So, despite farmers' tireless efforts, the quality and quantity of agricultural output are occasionally affected.
Thankfully, there is hope. What if crop failure could be predicted, allowing for the appropriate action to be taken? Can conventional farming practices and cutting-edge approaches like agri-drones coexist to solve the issues plaguing India's agricultural sector? Can drones play a significant role in agricultural observation, improving the possibilities of failure mitigation? In this post, we'll examine each of these possibilities to predict what the future may hold.
Unmanned aerial vehicles, or drones, are utilized for surveillance across a variety of businesses. Up until recently, they were mostly utilized by businesses in the mining and construction industries, the military, and amateurs.
But now that drone technology is more widely accessible, it may also be used in several agricultural areas. Since the technology is still in its infancy in India, numerous businesses are working to make it freely accessible to Indian farmers and prepared for use to boost agricultural output efficiency.
Recent studies predict that by 2025, the global drone industry for agriculture would increase at a compound annual growth rate of 35.9% and reach $5.7 billion. Drones have many advantages in the agricultural sector from soil testing and field analysis to crop monitoring, livestock management, crop health check, geofencing, and many more.
To achieve all these benefits Krishi Viman is transforming India's agricultural sector and tripling farmer income by using drone agri- technology, helping in reducing manual labor, lowering health hazards, and improving efficiency.
Fully autonomous operations and the capacity to adjust to various conditions make it capable of navigating any terrain, from paddy fields to mountains!
